Listen for the Lie by Amy Tintera
3.5
3.5 ⭐️ I really wanted to love this and I did love a lot of aspects of it. True crime podcaster meets potential suspect in her best friend’s murder? Perfect! Or so I thought. 😅
Ben, the podcaster, he’s awesome, very chill and really wants to help find out who unalived her best friend, whether it’s her or someone else, he will find out.
Lucy was cool, a lot of sarcasm which I can appreciate as I also am fluent in sarcasm. And through all the trauma she endured, you gotta find something to cope. She uses sarcasm.
But, why was everybody cheating on everybody? Literally everybody? It was so overplayed that by the 4th person we found out was cheating I wasn’t even surprised anymore. And it was also highly predictable. I knew who did it less than halfway through the book.
The one thing I can highly appreciate though is how this book highlights the differences between when women tell their truth and when men tell their truth and the reception to both. Women are normally always disbelieved, while men believe each other easily without any proof. So I loved that message of the book.
It is still a highly enjoyable read that I would recommend as an introduction to the Mystery/Suspense genre. K bye.
